You're welcome! Here's a link to smoking areas by ship. Perhaps the Vista areas will be similar to the Breeze.

I hope they make this information really available to those booking the Havana balcony rooms. The entire deck 5 on one side of the ship is smoking and I would not want to book a room within that proximity to the smoke.

 

 

Saw this on another thread...

 

For those that are interested in the smoking policy on the Vista, here is the official posting

 

Please note that after earlier discussions, we have designated the following locations where smoking will be permitted on the Carnival Vista:

• Deck 4 – Interior Space – Casino & Casino Bar

• Deck 11 – Exterior Space – Port side Aft

I looked over the deckplan. Knowing that on the Magic and Breeze you can smoke on the outside area near the Red Frog Pub, I "think" Carnival will allow for a small area near the Red Frog on this ship. They'll have to be very limited otherwise the area will drift into the Havana Cabanas.

 

This is just my guess.

Hmmm...looks like they've gotten rid of smoking on deck 5 because there are cabins there now. I guess we'll have to wait and see :)

I'm hoping it's a work in progress.

 

Personally, we don't care because we are non-smokers. However, we are bringing our smoking parents with us. We shall see.

Just read back on John Heald's FB page, and he mentions port side Lanai as well.

I wish I could find that post and reply to his response. At this time, they have no smoking areas on the Lido. You would think they could make one of the bars a smoking area. Either Red Frog or Blue Iguana.

No other ship allows smoking around food service areas. You have to go one deck up to find the smoking areas - that's been my experience on the Breeze and Liberty :)

I really don't want to get involved in a smoking thread but since the OP asked here is my 2 cents. IMHO the majority of smokers abide by the smoking area policy. By creating more restrictive areas, it will lead to more smokers lighting up where ever thus creating considerable ill will among the passengers. I for one am a smoker that has a cabin on deck 10 forward. That is an awful long way to walk. Just saying

I totally agree with you. I also booked a cabin on Deck 10 forward assuming that would put me closer to a smoking area so I could easily comply with the rules. I am hoping the smoking areas for the Vista are still a work in progress. Apparently it started with just the casino and Deck 11 Port side aft and then yesterday Heald included the lanai. Hopefully there will be some area on Deck 11 forward added as well like most of the other ships.

 

Time will tell...

I have not sailed yet, but this is what is on the Carnival website.

 

Carnival Vista

Cigarette smoking (including electronic cigarettes and personal vaporizers) are permitted in the following areas:

 

Vista Casino: Smoking is permitted while playing at designated slot machines and table games.

Vista Bar: Smoking is permitted in designated area.

Outdoors: Smoking is permitted in designated areas on Deck 5 (starboard side, forward) and Deck 11 (starboard side, aft and starboard side, forward-above the Redfrog Rum Bar).

Note: Cigar and tobacco pipes are only permitted in the outdoor designated areas on Deck 5 (starboard side, forward) and Deck 11 (starboard side, aft).

Deck 11 aft is where I spent most of my time and yes, there are loungers there as well as other seating. It was the entire side of that area that was smoking and it was very comfortable.

 

The lanai area on deck 5 was very nice as well and situated nicely for an after dinner stop.

 

All in all, I found the smoking areas very comfortable and well taken care of. The Deck 11 area was great for grabbing a cup of coffee in the aft area on Deck 10 in the morning and heading upstairs and after dinner was nice on Deck 5.

I'll be on the Vista in 100 days :). We have a Havana Cabana, so I was very happy when the deck 5 smoking area was announced.

Thank you Baseballmom, Could you tell me on deck 11, is it only the aft? so there is no area in the middle of deck 11 like above the pool area?

Also on Deck 5 is the lanai area smoking in the back or front or midship? Thank you
